Error: Calling connect() while still connected, missing disconnect()

Thank you for your quick start sample, I was able to use the standalone app, took photo and saved to my G-drive.

I then tried to integrate with my app and started an new activity to this class using intent. I did not make any change to the class other than the class name. The app ran, I could see the camera app and able to take picture. My G-drive "Upload to Drive" screen pops up, showing the file name, account and root folder of My Drive, I could also browse on the My Drive button and choose folders. However, when I clicked ok, the app crashed.

The logcat record:
08-26 16:54:49.761: I/g-drive-quickstart(1566): API client connected.

Kindly let me know what could be the problem. Appreciate your helps.

how to know if user denied access?

hi.
i am looking into integrating some functionality of google drive in my app and i have immediately noticed something that's missing.
if the app is not yet authorized, i get this error message:
GoogleApiClient connection failed: ConnectionResult{statusCode=SIGN_IN_REQUIRED, resolution=PendingIntent{a846aa3: android.os.BinderProxy@ff141a0}, message=null}

assuming this is the first time the user is trying to connect, then the "choose account" and permission dialogs will display. in the permission dialog, the user can choose to either accept or deny. i would like to catch the event where a user denies the permission and display an appropriate message - however,
the exact same error message is logged.
how can i differentiate between "user denied permissions" event to other events? (like the first time the user is trying to connect)

Google Drive Error on import

Hi I have already followed the instructions conducted at your video on youtube
"Google Drive SDK: Writing your first Drive app on Android" unfortunately I'm having an error at these:

**The import com.google.android.gms.drive.DriveApi.OnNewContentsCallback cannot be resolved.

**The type MainActivity must implement the inherited abstract method GoogleApiClient.ConnectionCallbacks.onConnectionSuspended(int)

Please help!

Android Google Drive API increases file size after re-download

I am using google drive API to store images in google drive. I do some optimizations on image size (decrease image quality) before uploading the file. File is uploaded to appdata folder. After restoring images from google drive, somehow file size of images get increased by a significant amount.

After repeating this behavior, i can see a pattern, which is:

more colorful image is, it's size will increase in that ratio.

i.e black and white image will get a little bump in size and a colored image may get double of its original size.

I wonder how can google drive alter my data.

Original image

Only single file was deleted for this screenshot

Unknown issue with Google play services

Log:

I/BaseDriveActivity(5657): GoogleApiClient connection failed: ConnectionResult{statusCode=INTERNAL_ERROR, resolution=null}

always showing same error, am using Eclipse KEPLER and gooleplayservices rev 14, help me to solve this issue

Gradle complaining with original code

It gives me this error message at first build:

Error:Unsupported method: BaseConfig.getApplicationIdSuffix().
The version of Gradle you connect to does not support that method.
To resolve the problem you can change/upgrade the target version of Gradle you connect to.
Alternatively, you can ignore this exception and read other information from the model.

What should i do?

Can not compile https://github.com/googledrive/android-quickstart sample project

Hi There,
I need help with importing / running this Android google drive quick start sample project in Eclipse.
https://github.com/googledrive/android-quickstart sample project
The code i downloaded was from this link below:
https://github.com/googledrive/android-demos/archive/master.zip

My problem: It does not compile.
Whether I create a ne project with the same class / package name, or After i import the project as is using the Eclipse import faclity, the project does not compile.
I get like 612 errors.
All of them looks like eclipse can not find certain class paths or something similar.
Example errors:
Description Resource Path Location Type
AndroidManifest.xml file missing! HomeActivity Unknown Android Packaging Problem _ BUT YET the file is present
Description Resource Path Location Type
ChangeEvent cannot be resolved to a type ListenChangeEventsForFilesActivity.java /HomeActivity/src/com/google/android/gms/drive/sample/demo/events line 116 Java Problem
and many more like that.
I tried cleaning the project, but not working

Can some one PLEASE PLEASE HELP?

Connection Fails, SIGN_IN_REQUIRED

I just cloned this repository and opened it in Android Studio, built and ran it on my Nexus 6P, without making any changes, and when the account chooser pops up, no matter which account I choose, i get this error message immediately logged:

I/drive-quickstart: GoogleApiClient connection failed: ConnectionResult{statusCode=SIGN_IN_REQUIRED, resolution=PendingIntent{bd2ce36: android.os.BinderProxy@75a7137}, message=null}

Again, built straight from source, no changes, just doesn't work.

Also, the resolution intent is not handled in onActivityResult, so not sure what to do if this were to happen in production.

Access to the whole Drive not allowed

I'm trying to use this API to access all files on user's Drive, but it is not possible:

1. Using Drive.SCOPE_FILE only lists New Folder as a child of the root folder (client.rootFolder)
2. Using just Scope("https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive.readonly") fails with:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: You must request a Drive scope in order to interact with the Drive API.
       at com.google.android.gms.common.internal.zzbq.checkArgument(Unknown Source)
       at com.google.android.gms.drive.Drive.zza(Unknown Source)
       at com.google.android.gms.drive.Drive.getDriveResourceClient(Unknown Source)

3. Using both scopes: requestScopes(Drive.SCOPE_FILE, Scope("https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive.readonly")) seems to ignore the latter one and still only lists the New Folder
